Comics pioneer Trina Robbins appears Feb. 8 at Friends of the Menlo Park Library event
From the underground comix movement to Wonder Woman, comics pioneer Trina Robbins has done it all! She’s made clothes for Mama Cass & David Crosby, and she’s written stories for Barbie & the Powerpuff Girls. Now this comics “herstorian” has written a memoir, and she will join us to share tales from her life, and also her perspectives on women in comics.
The event takes place on Feb. 8 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm in the Menlo Park City Council Chamber. You can reserve your free ticket in advance.
